Had my X heads ported - results

I was racing Earl Blake and he is a friend. Most everyone that runs a Mopar Stock/SS
in the Western US is a pretty good friend of mine. we check fuel and weigh after the runf it is a.
My car weight exactly to the pound the minimum it could legal weigh and Earl's Cuda was 5 lbs
over his minimum. I told him "You would have beaten me by about .0004 if you had been 5 lbs lighter.
However, if my car had been a scant one pound lighter = I would have been disqualified. I was glad to weigh -
so I could visit the bathroom (Would not of made weight and I knew I was very close). Actually the timing system will
determine a winner if it is a dead heat on the clocks! Street Racing (How I used to make my living) is a different story
of racing is that close!
Years ago I sometimes would help out on a Trans Am team. To make weight they used a big steel donut that looked like a roll of Duct Tape. It was not in the car during the race but would magical appear in the car before it got to the scales.
